Get some friends or family and play the exquisite corpse game.

“Exquisite corpse?” I hear you ask. “That sounds horrific! What are you asking us to do?!” Never fear, friends. The exquisite corpse game is not about murder, I promise - it’s about drawing. Find four other people to play with. Each of you gets a sheet of paper folded into four sections and a pencil. In the top section, each of you should draw a head and shoulders, and then fold the paper to hide it. Pass the paper to the left (or right, if you don’t conform to society) and on your new paper, draw a torso in the second section. Continue passing and drawing, next drawing from the waist to the knees, then the knees to the feet. Once your paper is full, unfold it and look at the ridiculous Frankenstein-like creatures you’ve created!
